We don't yet have any idea what the ideology of the Kirk shooter was.
But we do know that the Denver school shooter was a far-right white supremacist.

Also the DNC in Washington DC just had a bomb threat. Coincidence? Nah...

Adidas, Walmart, Home Depot, and other major brands that say Trump's tariffs are pushing them to raise prices

Trump's tariffs have led some companies to announce that they plan to raise prices.
Even before his so-called "Liberation Day," companies warned...
Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice.
It doesn't have to be this way.
Noticing a pattern here.
"The time has come for an all-out world war against poverty. The rich nations must use their vast resources of wealth to develop the underdeveloped, school the unschooled, and feed the unfed. Ultimately a great nation is a compassionate nation." - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
We continue to get screwed.
I don't think they realize what can of worms they are opening by going after Obama. It's certainly not the one they think it is. I predict the level of resistance in this country will rise to an intensity they can't even imagine.
A whole lot of hell can be raised...legally. F*ck these MF's.
He’s just stating the facts…
So the Kerr County, Texas commissioners refused Federal ARPA funds for emergency warning systems because of “communism” and the result was they killed over 200 people…
This is what hate and GOP rhetoric does to your brain.

The greatest country in the world?
Not if these stats are correct.
Can’t make this up.
I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.
I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
They're building a fascist police state with our money.
If you’re zip-tying grandmas protesting losing health care maybe you’re not the good guys in the story?
That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.
Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?
The President's disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers. He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations. It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.
AOC: “It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”
This sounds oddly....."familiar" 🤔
BREAKING: In a unanimous decision, a federal court of appeals has ruled that Louisiana's law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in all public school classrooms is unconstitutional.
We’ll keep saying it: Public schools are not Sunday schools.
